The invention relates to a method for preparing a sub-nanometer gold cluster molecule. The purification of the prior part is complex. The method of the invention firstly uses chloroauric acid as raw material and adopts a solution method for synthesizing a gold nanometer crystal solution. Then, the gold nanometer crystal solution and amine solution with the molar concentration of 1mM-10M are mixed and react for more than 30min. After the reaction is finished, the centrifugal separation is carried out on the solution to obtain sub-nanometer gold cluster molecular solution. The sub-nanometer gold cluster molecule obtained by the method is monodispersed Au8 cluster molecule. Only common centrifugation is required for separating other impurities. The purification mode is simple.
